Academic self-concept formation: A forty-year overview

There is a positive psychology revolution sweeping educational psychology, emphasizing how healthy, normal, and exceptional students can get the most from education. Positive self-beliefs are at the heart of this revolution.

Herb's self-concept research programme represents a substantive-quantitative synergy, applying and developing new quantitative approaches to better address substantive issues with significant policy implications. He'll also explain how self-concept is an essential mediating factor that facilitates attaining other desirable outcomes.

This event will be particularly useful for those interested in positive psychology and self-concept formation.

Please note this is a hybrid event and can be joined either in-person or online.
